Re: So either don't use it or don't complain of corporate control!
You're still an idiot.
of course I'm not going to use it or play those games, but, blue, think of it like this...
How long until other companies see "hey, they can get away with curbing people's speech, let's do the same thing"?
It's the same reason why, despite not getting certain games or electronics, I can still complain about certain "features" that those things contain, like on-disk DLC and Micro-transactions, among other things.
Because, if you buy the stuff, you're supporting the whole "less is good" mentality that corporations want to shove down your throat.
Sure, you could NOT buy, but not speaking up about it is JUST as bad!
That would be why they dislike Christians and Israel, yeah, I can see that. But the direct cause of 9/11 was, as I pointed out, U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East since the 1950s.
Besides, other than the extremists, which exist in other religions, most Muslims, AKA, Islamists, are very peaceful people who want to practice their religion in peace and spread their beliefs everywhere.
Much like Christians and other religions.
So, please, don't try to say "they're nothing but evil and full of hatred for us" when that's not it at all.
Ron Paul said it best "They don't hate us because we're free and prosperous, they hate us because we're interfering with their lives".
Wow, you didn't even bother to read the rest of my reply, did you?
Even if they hate Americans, the fact is, America has been over there, for decades, screwing with Middle East politics and policies and enforcing our will on them.
They put together one major attack (9/11) with some other bombing attacks before-hand... and you see how much we hate them, for individual efforts and stuff that happens.
Now then, imagine how THEY feel because, unlike single incidents, we're over there for DECADES doing the SAME. DAMN. THING. to them.
9/11 is caused because of U.S. interventionist policies in the Middle East for years, starting with the overthrow of the Iranian government in the 1950s, funding Al Queda against the Soviets in the 1960s, helping Saddam Hussein rise to power in the 1980s and giving him weapons of mass destruction to use in war against Iran in the 1980s, putting extreme sanctions on Iraq and other Middle Eastern countries in the 1990s, which forced women and children to starve to death while they cried for help from anyone who would listen, which led to people, desperate to get attention and strike back at their oppressors, to do a truly monstrous thing.
You do have a point, sorry, just bitter about hearing ANOTHER story of cops who do stuff like this. But, even if these two get arrested, how many more bad cops are out there not getting punished properly?
Sorry to say, a small minority isn't abusing their freedom, a small minority is locking down the internet to try and keep money flowing in without having to change the way they act.
Isn't that AGAINST the idea of free market capitalism?

Damn, it's almost like common sense says that those Zero tolerance laws shouldn't work.
But you know, common sense is so rare it's a goddammed Super Power.

Can we just officially rename police officers as Government Sanctioned Mobsters already?
At least then we know what we're dealing with.
